Steampunk
Steampunk is the fastest growing subculture around. It imagines a world in which steam is the main locomotive power driving submersibles, rockets and ships across the world. And it features Victoriana, time travel and adventure, all elements in this wonderful new tarot. The major archetypes are the Gods of the Machine, and the four suits are Airships, Engines, Submersibles and Leviathans. This interaction of energies offers wisdom and direction from an alternative reality, but still relevant to us today.
Price : £ 17.54

Steampunk
This is a reissue of the first major YA steampunk anthology; fourteen top storytellers push the genre’s mix of sci-fi, fantasy, history, and adventure in fascinating new directions. Imagine an alternate universe where romance and technology reign. Where tinkerers and dreamers craft and re-craft a world of automatons, clockworks, calculating machines, and other marvels that never were. Here, fourteen masters of speculative fiction, including two graphic storytellers, embrace the steampunk genre’s established themes and refashion them in surprising ways and settings as diverse as Appalachia, Ancient Rome, future Australia, and alternate California. The result is an anthology that defies its genre even as it defines it. This is the first YA anthology to focus exclusively on steampunk; genre defining and genre defying – with steampunk settings as diverse as Canada, New Zealand, Wales, Ancient Rome, future Australia and alternate California. This title features a top contributor line-up and editors with established adult/YA/cult following. This title includes a B-format edition of this first-rate literary sci-fi/fantasy with crossover appeal.

Steampunk
The sixth marvellous tale of high adventure and derring-do from the master of steampunk literature, set in the world of The Court of the Air A daring underwater chase ends in a battle for the Kingdom itself…The streets of Middlesteel are under attack by an unseen enemy, leaving bloodless corpses in its trail. The newssheets scream vampire, but the truth is even more deadly than anyone knows. Charlotte Shades, Mistress of Mesmerism, is a thief – and a darned good one at that. When two mysterious men ask her to steal King Jude’s Sceptre from the Parliament vaults, the challenge (and reward) is too great to pass up. After all, Charlotte’s natural charm and the magic of the gem she wears – the mysterious Eye of Fate – have never failed her before. Only consulting detective Jethro Daunt and his steamman companion Boxiron know there’s more to these two men than meets the eye. Yet even as they rescue Charlotte from a fate worse than death, they are thrown into a plot thicker than even they realize. They escape beneath the waves in an ancient submarine led by Commodore Jethro Black, where they encounter stiff resistance from the strange people who inhabit the vast underwater kingdoms.But man, woman, seanore and gillneck alike must band together if they are to defeat a danger that might not even be from this world…
